"I'm back after watching the fun, son." As soon as Li Ming entered the house, he heard his mother's voice coming from the kitchen.
"Well, I've finished reading. The middle courtyard is very lively. It's crazy every day." Li Ming walked to the kitchen to see if there was anything he could do to help.
"Okay, don't come in, you're in the way." Mother Li glanced at Comrade Li Ming with disgust.
Li Ming turned around and left, "By the way, Mom, I caught another fish today, please take care of it."
"Don't worry, I'm working on it. Let's eat fish tonight."
"By the way, you go to the cooperative at the entrance of the alley to buy a bottle of wine. This is what your dad likes." Mother Li casually ordered.
"Okay, I'll go right away." Comrade Li Ming waved his hand and left the house, planning to go to the cooperative to buy wine.
"Mingzi is off work! What are you doing here?" The third uncle, Yan Fugui, was watering flowers at the door and looking at Li Ming.
"Hey, third uncle, didn't I catch a fish weighing more than two kilograms today? I plan to eat fish tonight. Comrade Li Weiguo likes to eat fish with wine, so I have to buy a bottle." Li Ming opened his mouth and caught the fish I want to provoke the third uncle.
The third uncle quickly put down the kettle, "What else do you need to buy? Third uncle can just bring the wine."
Li Ming shook his head quickly, "That won't work, third uncle, my dad can't drink the Erguotou you mixed with water. I'd better buy it quickly. Just keep watering the flowers."
After saying that, he hurried out of the yard without waiting for Yan Fugui's reply. Just tease Yan Fugui's heartstrings, but he must not bring this old kid to his house for dinner, otherwise he won't even be able to drink the soup.
Yan Fugui was very disappointed that he couldn't get a meal from the Li family today. Although the Li family's cooking skills were not as good as those in the courtyard, they couldn't stand the fact that their daily meals were the best in the courtyard.
Although Yi Zhonghai's current salary is not low, he has not yet reached the level 8 level at the beginning of the plot. His monthly salary is less than ninety-nine yuan, and he is thinking about the consequences of his retirement every day and is reluctant to eat.
These days, the Sijiucheng Supply and Marketing Cooperative sells a variety of items, including basic living necessities such as rice, flour, grains and oils, meat, eggs, fish, and vegetables, as well as fast-moving consumer goods such as tobacco, alcohol, sugar, tea, and cloth.
Most of the daily necessities needed by the surrounding people can be purchased from supply and marketing cooperatives.
Li Ming carried two Erguotou from the supply and marketing cooperative and met Comrade Li Weiguo who was working with Liu Haizhong.
"Mingzi, your mother asked you to buy something!" Comrade Li Weiguo's sharp eyes saw his eldest son coming out of the supply and marketing cooperative from a distance.
When the two of them came in front of each other, Li Ming replied with a flat mouth, "Yeah, I caught a fish, and my mother will make it for you to eat. After that, she asked me to buy you a drink, so that you can spend the evening together." This meal all came from me.”
Li Weiguo and Li Weiguo looked happy for a while. Liu Haizhong also envied the filial and obedient eldest son of the Li family. There was no family in this courtyard who did not envy his old Li family.
Li's father slapped his hand on Li Ming's shoulder and said unceremoniously, "That proves that my son is promising, right?"
"Hurry up and give me the wine. Don't drop it again while you're holding it."
After saying that, he took the wine away from Li Ming.
The courtyard of the steel rolling mill.
Li family.
"Comrade Li, you took advantage of my brother again today." Li Rui sat at the dinner table and complained to his father, who was holding a wine glass and drinking happily.
"That's right, who doesn't envy our family in the steel rolling mill now? My son is now a cadre, and when my precious girl graduates, she will also be a cadre." Father Li was having a silly laugh while drinking.
Li Ming ignored his father who was so drunk that he couldn't find Bei after just two ounces of wine. His father was a typical foodie and drinker.
"Mingzi, did you get anything good when you went to the countryside today?" Mother Li asked, looking at her precious son.
"Sister, go and close the door." Li Ming instructed his sister to close the door before continuing.
"Nothing. I went to the countryside today and didn't see a single chicken feather. However, I did get to know a production brigade captain from Shibalidian. I heard from him that the large commune canteens in the countryside have changed from the big fish in the past. The big meat has now become coarse rice.”
"Sometimes even brown rice is not enough to eat. This year's drought is severe, and the food harvest is likely to fail."
When Li's father heard this, he stopped being silly and happy, and listened quite seriously to the news that his son brought from the countryside.
"But I plan to go there once a month. It would be good if I can get something. Even if I don't get anything good for the steel rolling mill, it would be convenient for our family to store some food ourselves."
Father Li nodded repeatedly, "Yes, that's the thing. Your mother and I have to work hard to collect food during this period."
"I will find the food stamps at home soon after dinner. Let's first exchange the food stamps we have saved for food recently."
"Okay, then I'll come back early from get off work and change more." Father Li nodded solemnly.
Since Li Ming was admitted to technical secondary school, he has had a say in some matters at home. Especially now, as Comrade Li Ming can start making money at home and do well in the purchasing department of the steel rolling mill, his parents have Take Li Ming's suggestion very seriously.
The most important thing is that Father Li and Mother Li are not stupid. Anyone who pays attention to food in recent times can feel that food is getting harder and harder to buy.
"By the way, brother, I came back today and heard that He Yuyu's brother was quarreling with Xu Damao again." Sister Li Rui blinked her big eyes and asked Li Ming for gossip.
"Well, that's right. If there's a day when they don't fight, it means there must be a lack of Xu Damao or He Yuzhu in the courtyard."
"As long as these two enemies are in our courtyard, don't worry, there will be lots of excitement in our courtyard from now on." Li Ming finished taking the last bite of his meal, lying on the chair and rubbing his belly contentedly.
I can eat to a full stomach now. When the New Year comes around, tsk tsk, it will be good to be seven-tenths full from one meal. However, he will not be short of food and drink when the time comes, and he can secretly take it out for his own use, but he must be careful, lest the beasts in the yard worry about him, and they are not sure how the white lotus Qin Huairu will change during the three-year disaster. It's a blood-sucking technique.
After helping his mother clear the dinner table, Comrade Li Ming returned to his cabin, preparing to immerse himself in his breeding space and take a look at it to see when the first batch of meat and grain would be harvested.
Especially recently, Li Ming also discovered that there is a warehouse built in his breeding space. Throwing things in will keep it in a state of pause. This is a magic weapon that can help his family better survive the three-year disaster.
It's also thanks to the fact that this system appears in my hands. If I go to the foot pot chicken, I will probably have to play tricks.
